Theater Troupe – Emerson Players

The recent production of “A Picture-Perfect Christmas – A Holiday Farcical” written and performed by the Emerson Players was an outstanding success.  This production was our annual Winter Musical Celebration, a play written, produced and performed by our in house theatre company!

Enjoy the show!

Emerson Players was founded by an Emerson member, a former theater instructor at a college in Louisiana who had returned to Houston with the idea to start a theater troupe.

The idea was enthusiastically received by a number Emerson members and friends and in 2009 Emerson Players was born. 

Emerson Players is an inclusive group. It has tried to include a wide range of ages and acting experience whenever possible. The sets and props, lighting, costumes and sound are all handled by the volunteer cast and crew of the productions. The troupe is always happy for other thespians of whatever age or skill level to join the group! (Some stage crew have turned into actors and usually actors fill in as crew. We are a flexible group!) Some of the Emerson Players have gone on to acting in other community theater productions, but still are “in” for the next Players’ performance.
